That's a very nice video. It is amazing to realize that we have a society so rich that it can devote an intelligent man's whole life to understanding a dead language and deciphering intricacies of its poetry.
After reading your references to the Havamal, I bought his translation, "The Wanderer's Havamal." He includes two translations. One is scholarly, the other he calls "The Cowboy Havamal," which he has translated more loosely.
